===Beginnings===

Adolfo Bautista played in amateur leagues in Dolores Hidalgo, San Diego de la Unión Guanajuato and San Miguel de Allende. Bautista made his debut on March 7, 1998 at the age of 18. He played with Tecos UAG from 1998–2002 where he scored 15 goals for the team in those four years. Bautista's first goal in the [[Mexican Primera División|Mexican Championship]] was in the Invierno 2000 tournament against [[Necaxa]] on September 17, 2000, where Tecos lost 3–1.

In late 2002, Bautista was transferred to [[Monarcas Morelia]] where he scored 8 goals in 21 games and was one of the team's important players. He made a deadly frontline with Chilean footballer [[Reinaldo Navia]] where together they packed over 15 goals for the team. He played for Morelia for two seasons, appearing in the Apertura 2002, Clausura 2003 tournaments where the team came second place and reached the championship finals in two consecutive seasons.
In mid-2003, he was transferred to [[C.F. Pachuca]] where much was expected from him, and very little was shown in the field, he spent most of his time on the bench. In 19 games, he scored only one goal against [[Chiapas F.C.|Chiapas]] and he struggled to find his form. Despite his poor performances, Pachuca still managed to reach the finals against [[UANL Tigres]] of Monterrey. [[UANL Tigres]] won the first of two games 1–0 at home and scored another goal in the return game in Pachuca's home stadium. Bautista scored a goal for Pachuca in the 77th minute and gave Pachuca a 3–1 victory over their opponent and took hold of the Championship title.

===Club Deportivo Guadalajara===


After a long transfer period, he was transferred to [[C.D. Guadalajara|Guadalajara]] in 2004. He is also sponsored by Mexican soccer shoe maker Eescord, a fact which is often characterized by throwing the shoe he scored the goal with into the crowd. In his first season, he scored nine goals in 19 games and was the team's top scorer. In 2005, he participated in the [[Copa Libertadores]] cup in which their most noticeable win was over [[Boca Juniors]] in their home game 4–0. The away game was tied 0–0, and during a small turmoil after the game showed on tape where Boca coach [[Jorge José Benítez]] is caught on tape spitting in Bautista's face. Chivas went on and lost to [[Atletico Paranaense]] in a global score of 5–2.

After a long transfer period, he was transferred to Guadalajara in 2004. He is also sponsored by Mexican soccer shoe maker Eescord, a fact which is often characterized by throwing the shoe he scored the goal with into the crowd.

Chivas went on and lost to Atletico Paranaense in a global score of 5–2.

During the 2006 Apertura, Bautista led Guadalajara to win the final against Toluca. Bautista is known for his creative "ball control", he takes pride in giving passes to his teammates and prefers to play as a Forward and Attacking Midfielder.
